And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie) novel Chapter 295

Cassie.

Days passed and when Saturday finally came, I was prepared to have the night of my life, considering I had been unable to see Melissa for the last few days. Cooped up in the house was absolutely aggravating. I finished my final exams Thursday, a day ahead of schedule thanks to James and I was ready to be done with that part of my life and look forward to finding a way to leave this God awful pack and make a new life with Melissa on the West Coast.

Standing in front of my mirror, I tried on multiple different outfits, trying to figure a way to make myself look absolutely irresistible tonight, and ended up settling for a short black miniskirt and a black crop top that shimmered every time I moved.

It was gorgeous, and I felt absolutely gorgeous in it. I fluffed my purple, pink hair behind my back, smiling at the overall effect the entire outfit and my makeup had on me.

"Damn girl, you look absolutely delicious," Melissa chuckled from my door, causing me to look over my shoulder at her. I knew she had been on her way, but I hadn't realized that she had already arrived.

"Thank you. It took me a few days to decide what I was going to actually wear, but I think I'm pretty pleased with the overall outfit."

Turning from the mirror, I walked over towards her and wrapped my arms around her. She looked super cute in her dark skinny jeans and yellow tank top. She wasn't a girly girl per se, like I could typically be, but she did do a very good job at making herself look absolutely ravishing.

The last few days I had thought more and more about the future I was going to have, and regardless of what my parents had thought and what other people thought I was going to end up doing, I had made the choice I would make my future what I wanted it to be.
